noobie with a questions please help

wsup everyone..im been on the board for about a month.still a noob.. decided for my first real mod im gonna get suspension.. the max doesnt handle as well as my old g20..kinda miss being able to take turns faster..but yeah.. just wanted some suggestions as to what to get.. im prolly gonna go with the kyb agx's cuase after reading a bunch of posts, everyone seems to be pretty content with... im wondering on the spring.. im looking for improved handling but still have a decent ride. its gonna be an everyday driver..and a drop that isnt too bad..though the stock 4th gen max sits really high compared to other sedans...looks almost as bad as some stock suv's.. i dont want my camber gettin too messed up..so if you guys can.. please reply with what suspension setup you have and your opinions on it..also any suggestions on what to get..thanks alot.. any reply is much appreciated..

I'm running H&R's w/KYB AGX's and I think it's great. It's also my daily driver so I didn't want to compromise the quality of the ride by slammin it w/Sprints or anything. The drop is nice, I like the way it looks when my rims are on. It handles very well, I also added a FSTB which helped a lot as well. I would highly recommend the H&R/KYB AGX setup. Hope this helps...welcome to the org

?

i think i narrowed my search for springs down to h&r's and maxspeeds.. h&r are like doubly the price almost.. are they that much better..from what ive read.maxspeed seem to perform pretty well when compared and the price is definatly more right.. my only concer about the maxspeeds is the camber after a near 2 inch drop..wil it be noticable bad and kill my tires quicker?. thanks..

I like my maxspeeds, the drop is not as rough as you might be thinking. It can still ride smooth on most roads and does have a nice feel in the turns.

re: sticky



No, man, is the post sticky? It's such a great reference for suspension mods that it needs to be put in the FAQ section or something...

Go read the "What's in your armrest?" thread if you want to read about "sticky" things...
